Famous quotes containing the words artificial and/or patients:

    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The peace loving nations must make a concerted effort in opposition to those violations of treaties and those ignorings of humane instincts which today are creating a state of international anarchy and instability from which there is no escape through mere isolation or neutrality....
